The Deer King

In feudal Japan, former soldier Van lives in a mine controlled by the ruling empire after losing to the powerful Tsoul Empire. His solitary existence is disrupted when a pack of wild dogs carrying a deadly and incurable disease attack, leaving only Van and young girl Yuna as survivors. As they seek a simple life in the countryside, they are pursued by nefarious forces intent on protecting Yuna at all costs. With Yuna's safety in mind, Van must uncover the true cause of the plague ravaging the kingdom and its possible cure, embarking on a perilous journey to protect her and potentially become "the Deer King".
